Under the gray sky, Huarong County and the Ming military camp outside the city, in the continuous drizzle, and the mountains and forests in the distance, the surface of Dongting Lake, are all hazy.

At this time, the rainwater under the city wall gathered into a small trickle, flowing to the lower places, gathering into patches of water, and the color of the water was bright scarlet.

This is Wang Yan surrounded by a large group of Ming army generals, drenched in rain, stepping on mud, passing by corpses with knives and guns, as well as weapons and flags scattered all over the ground, walking towards Huarong County.

The Qing soldiers fled north from Changde, and hid in Huarong County in a hurry, the materials were extremely scarce, and the arrows had already been shot, if it were not for the change of weather, the rain was continuous, and most of the firearms of the Ming army could not be used, and the Ming army would not have fought so hard.

Wang Yan was amazed by the fighting will of the Eight Banners soldiers who were not afraid of death, but fortunately, as long as the Ming army gave up life and death and decided to fight, it was not much worse than the Eight Banners.

Huarong County, the city that the Ming army besieged for ten days, was finally broken by the Ming army, and the Han army was almost wiped out with a white flag, and the Ming army also paid nearly 6,000 casualties before and after, which can be described as a tragic victory.

At the city gate, Liu Fangliang, who was still naked, saw Wang Yan come to the city gate, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said solemnly: "The last general is fortunate not to be dishonored and has taken Huarong." ”

Behind him, hundreds of Ming soldiers, who were also naked, also knelt on one knee at the same time and shouted, "Please enter the city." ”

Seeing this, Wang Yan's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly helped Liu Fangliang up and said: "Today's battle, the banner of the Manchu Qing Dynasty will be destroyed, and the name of General Liu will move the world." The governor will inevitably write to the court to talk about the general's merits, and no one in the court will dare to peep at the general again. ”

"The last general will not dare to take credit, this time to surround Shen Zhixiang in Huarong, it is all the plan of the national prince." Liu Fangliang was very happy in his heart, and after standing up, he suddenly waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, and said, "Bring the general's capture, bring it up, and let Grandpa Guo see it." ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and after a while, the two Ming soldiers dragged out a middle-aged man with tattered armor, bald face, tied with ropes, and gagged with rags.

When the man saw Wang Yan and the others, his face showed an unshaven expression, but the two Ming soldiers behind him were not polite, and directly kicked him in the knee with two feet, pressing him to his knees in the mud.

Liu Fangliang hurriedly explained: "Guogong, this guy is Shen Zhixiang, he saw that the city was broken, and he was about to commit suicide, but he was captured by the last general. ”

Wang Yan couldn't help but smile on his face and exclaimed: "In this way, General Liu has made another contribution." ”

Wang Yan didn't really care about Shen Zhixiang's life or death, he was still dead in the hands of Wang Yan, Wang Yan was interested in the Baijia Han Eight Banners, the more than 7,000 war horses, that was his real harvest.

At this time, Wang Yan couldn't help but ask, "How many war horses are left in the city?" ”

When Liu Fangliang heard this, his face, which was still very excited just now, immediately sank, "Grandpa Qiyuguo, the last general will let people search the whole city, and not a single live horse will be seen." ”

"What? How so? "Wang Yan also wanted to let the pro-army of the governor have one horse per person, and there are more than 7,000 war horses in the city, even if the Qing soldiers lack food, they can't eat it all!

Liu Fangliang was also angry when he thought about it, he suddenly kicked Shen Zhixiang, who was kneeling on the ground, causing his whole body to fall into the mud, and then said: "Grandpa Guo, it's all this beast, the last general will send someone to check, thousands of war horses, all of them were cut off their esophagus and bled to death." ”

When Wang Yan heard this, his face couldn't help but feel cold, the Ming army killed more than 6,000 people, but he didn't catch any loot.

Now the silver money in his hand is only 600,000 taels, and this batch of silver money will also pay the senior meritorious department, pay the soldiers who died in battle, and reward the meritorious soldiers.

After this battle, although he annihilated the Manchu Qing banner, he also wiped out his silver money, he thought that if he got thousands of war horses, it would not be a loss, but he didn't expect Shen Zhixiang to be so ruthless and so determined to be a thief.

At this time, Wang Yan was angry, asked the soldiers to pull him up from the mud, and asked people to remove the rags in his mouth, and angrily reprimanded: "Shen Zhixiang, Uncle Shen Gong is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and he died in battle, and he surrendered to Qing, why did he slaughter horses when he was defeated today, you have ancestors who are disrespectful, but you are loyal to the Tartars!" ”

Shen Zhixiang was removed from the gag cloth, and when he heard Wang Yan's words, he couldn't help laughing, "The Ming Dynasty is rotten, and it is good at killing Mao Shuai, what is there to be loyal to?" Haha~ Wang Yan, although you defeated a certain today, a certain made you get no benefits. It's a pity that time is pressing, and someone has time to kill the horse, otherwise the untouchables in the city will be buried with Ben General, haha~"

Shen Zhixiang laughed wildly, making Wang Yan's eyes suddenly narrow, revealing a strong murderous aura, and many generals behind him had already rushed up angrily, Li Guo kicked Shen Zhixiang to the ground again, and a group of people hugged him, which was punched and kicked, making Shen Zhixiang scream again and again.

War horses are the most important strategic materials in ancient China, the Han and Tang dynasties have horses, so although they are far away, they must be punished, Huo Quai's disease can seal the wolf Juxu, Tang Taizong can break the Turks, and the two Song Dynasty have few horses, so the strategy has been passive.

Wang Yan wanted to get the war horse and build the Dubiao army into an elite cavalry, and the generals under him were also looking forward to being able to share a few good horses after the city was broken, but they didn't expect to be slaughtered by Shen Zhixiang.

At this time, not to mention that Shen Zhixiang was disrespectful to Wang Yan, just saying that the matter of this war horse was enough to make the generals hate him to the core, and they used the dialects of Shaanxi, Huainan and other places to scold while fighting.

"Melon peel, smash the head, kill you~"

"Ma Can, ah scumbag~"

Seeing this, Wang Yan waited for the generals to beat him for a while, and then frowned and said: "Stop, don't break the phase~" When the generals retreated to the side, Wang Yan looked at Shen Zhixiang, who was beaten and couldn't move, and said: "Hmph~ Since you are determined to be a loyal minister of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, then the governor will become a complete one." ”

At this time, Wang Yan once again made people optimistic about Shen Zhixiang, so he led the generals into the city.

After entering the city, Wang Yan sent people to clean up the corpses of the war horses in the city, clean up the battlefield, and post notices for the people, and on the other hand, he sent people to take a small boat to Junshan Island, and ordered Man Dazhuang to meet the army to cross the lake and prepare for a battle with Luckdhun.

The next day, after a gloomy day, the weather suddenly became sunny, and the water of Dongting Lake looked sparkling under the spring sun.

With such good weather, it should have been a good day to invite three or five friends, drink and compose poems, and boat in the rivers and lakes, but the jackals are on the side, and if they are not driven out of their homeland, Wang Yan will not be able to enjoy it for a moment, and the peace and tranquility of the past will be peaceful.

At noon, the warships of the Manda Zhuang army appeared on the lake outside Huarong County, and Wang Yan ordered Dai Zhi to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to board the ship first, and wrote a letter, asking him to give his ideas to Luckdehun, and then let them rush to Yuezhou to support.
